§ 8. Mr. Martinasked the Minister of Labour whether he can now make an announcement on his proposal for the training and resettlement of disabled persons?
§ Mr. BevinYes, Sir. A leaflet describing an interim scheme for the training and resettlement of disabled persons has been issued by my Department. I am sending a copy to my hon. Friend; copies will also be available at the end of Questions in the Vote Office. I would emphasise that this is an interim scheme only, and that it does not pretend to deal comprehensively with the problems of rehabilitation and resettlement.
§ Mr. MartinWhile thanking my right hon. Friend for that answer, may I ask him if he will take steps to see that as much publicity as possible is given to this scheme to bring it to the notice of the individual workman, who has great difficulty in finding out what happens?
§ Mr. J. GriffithsDoes the scheme apply to people disabled in industry as well as those disabled in the Services?
